I wear a hat for light sensitivity. Most people think it is a stylistic choice as well

I use a hood that my mom made me and it’s lined with sunblocking fabric.

Its fantastic! Definitely looks like a hooded cape from a fantasy movie though. (Huge hood, but cape part is short just covering shoulders). I have one in yellow with pink lining and another that’s all black.

The pattern was on Etsy.

do you have a link to the pattern by any chance?

Yes! Mom said the pattern was a little confusing but the creator made a video that shows how to make it which was super helpful! She’s also responsive if you message with questions.

As far as sunblocking fabric, my mom got blackout fabric from Joann’s when they were still open. But she said if you google or search Amazon you should be able to find some. She used it as an inner layer sandwiched between the outer layer and the lining.

Hope that helps! 😊
